    Comodo Dragon + HTTPSB. All requests are blacklisted by default except CSS and IMG.

    I tried hxxp://turbobit.net/1nn90f9cdnk0.html and I am unable to get a redirection even after allowing "all". Something changed since then on this page? The fact that another tab was opened this tells me it's more related to javascript lanching a new tab than server-side redirection (which is the one usually users cannot easily spot).

    Regarding aad73c550c.se I checked, and it is not in any preset blocked hosts, so I will add it to the HTTPSB's maintained one. There was a lot of mitigation when your browser downloaded the image from aad73c550c.se: no scripts were executed, no cookies were sent, no referer info was sent.

    Ah ok, got it, I missed I had to click on the "Regular Download" button.

    So indeed this is javascript opening a pop-up window, not a HTTP redirect header.

    Now if you have the option "Do not allow any site to show pop-ups (recommended)" checked in Chromium, the new tab is not created.

    So really I don't see a big deal here:

    - Popups might be blocked as per user settings.
    - If not, the popup URL might be blacklisted (no request will reach it -- as seen in the Sampei Nihira's screenshot).
    - If not, the popup hostname is quite probably graylisted (default out-of-the-box settings), i.e. javascript will not execute, cookies will be removed, referer will be blanked -- as seen in GrafZeppelin's screenshot.

    The native popup blocker in Chromium browsers barely blocks any popups. I still set it like that though, but I wouldn't rely on it.
